Post by Dreamer »

Show image preview and size when saving / choosing compress level, before saving (like in PhotoFiltre)

It does not matter which graphic programs support this (e.g. Corel Photopaint does it, and I'm sure there's others).

I (still) think that it would be very useful and important to both see a preview and the expected file size when saving an image. See discussion Preview and file size missing in 'Save As' dialog.

It would be perfect if there was the original image and the preview for the lossy image. Navigation and zooming into the original/preview should be also possible. I don't have XnView DeLuxe, here, but for all I know it supports most of this, already.

Menu - File > Save As > click on Save button > click on Preview button

I don't think it's too 'special' feature and probably many free programs got it, so think about it please... Of course decision is on you.

That's great, thank you very much.

You'll add size and image preview too?

Time I (we) will save, I (we) can use for more testing :wink:

Could you answer to this and this too, please?

Great, thank you! (I hope it's size and image preview because I'm not sure about it)

Why wasn't this thread raised easlier in RC testing for XnView 1.80???
This would have been wonderful to have added.
